Swiatek and Kenin advance at Wimbledon Championships
- 3 years ago
Seventh seed Iga Swiatek claimed a first senior win at Wimbledon after beating Hsieh Su-wei 6-4 6-4 to reach the second round.
A junior winner of the tournament in 2018, the Polish right-hander broke her opponent at the beginning of each set to make a triumphant start to this year's Championships.
Victorious at the French Open last year as a teenager, Swiatek was back on Court One for the first time since she lifted the junior title at SW19 three years ago.
Sofia Kenin, the fourth seed, swept aside Wang Xinyu 6-4 6-2, on Monday.
